Ace and Dean-O talk about monetization in games and why the general reaction to Baldur’s Gate III is a very good thing (and also why Baldur’s Gate III is a very good game). Note: Dean-O is out of town, and that means audio issues. We have no idea why the popping was happening.

On this one-year episode, Ace and Dean-O forget this is the one-year episode. So, instead of doing anything special to mark the occasion, they did a normal episode about Biden’s performance as a speaker, Pearl and masculinity grifting, Trump’s indictment, and Mandela Effects/corporate psyops.

When you go into a store, you're really going into a multidimensional la-la-land. Everyone around you is blitzed to the gils, they don't even see you, they're just looking for level 2 in their own personal wormhole. The entire physical public sphere in America today is an open air crack den, invisible beneath a thin veneer of pseudo-functional metaverse complex. Note: I (Dean-O) fucked up and said...
